Ingredients
  

  • 3 to 4 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups carrots cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups potatoes cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 cup blue cheese crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and rosemary. Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  3. Remove the roast from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Return the roast to the pot and pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Add the carrots and potatoes around the roast. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Cover the pot and transfer it to the preheated oven. Cook for 3 to 4 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
  6. Once cooked, remove the roast and vegetables from the pot and set aside.
  7. To make the blue cheese gravy, combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Bring the remaining liquid in the pot to a simmer over medium heat, then whisk in the slurry. Cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the crumbled blue cheese until melted and smooth.
  8. Serve the pot roast and vegetables with the blue cheese gravy drizzled on top.
